Even longer cycling events, in which I have been known to participate, I not so much prepared for as much as just “rode a little farther” on that day. So, the decision to prepare for an event like the (half) Silverman is a big one. Half Silverman — it sounds like a wrestling hold, something to struggle out of before losing consciousness. Challenging, yes, but unlike being body slammed by Hulk Hogan, rewarding as well.

I’m kinda sort of half-committed to this thing right now. I’m willing, even excited, to try running farther than I ever have and swimming more than the distance across the pool to the floating tiki lounge. Where this lands me this time next year — at the starting line or the buffet line — is still in flux. I’m sure there are others out there on the fence, as well. What are your reasons and motivations for choosing to participate in the SIlverman (or not)?
